it has a lua-5.3-ceph branch, so I guess that some changes were done for ceph. will use the submodule. On Thu, Aug 20, 2020 at 3:42 PM Matt Benjamin <mbenjami@redhat.com> wrote:
ISTR that when Lua scripting was added with the Mantle project, there may have been some modification of the Lua system as part of the integration. I might be wrong about that, or there might be no trace of that left, but ...?

does anyone know why we have lua5.1 as a ceph submodule [1]? the latest lua is available for many linux distros (centos/rhel,
ubuntu, fedora, opensuse, etc.), why not add it to install-deps.sh?
Presumably for the same reason we have boost as a submodule.
Past experience has shown that the version of foo (lua in this case) can vary from distro to distro. Also, each distro is a "moving target" in that the version of foo (lua in this case) can change, with consequences that are impossible to predict, at any time.
